On shore his brother-in-law is letting out the line, 
allowing them to be taken by the Stream, as his 
nephew upon the further side waits to begin hauling 
them in. Exactly at the middle of the River, 
for a moment, no one can see either Father or Son.
To appearance, the passengers stand upon a raft in
a boundless body of water.

"(..) 'Twas the perfect War. No mercy, no restraint, 
pure joy in killing. It cannot be let go so easily."

You think it's over out her, Redcoat? It's not over. 
The Fall of Quebec was not the end, nor Bouquet's 
Success at Bushy Run, nor the relief of Fort Pitt,-- 
for there is ever a drop in the cup left, another Shot 
to be fir'd, another life to be taken off cruelly, in 
unmediated Hate, ev'ry day in this Forest Life, somewhere. 
The last Dead in this have not been born.
